Halo Infinite Releasing Unfinished (But Still Exciting)

[@fgdubz4309]

But because I care more about a game being fun than having the most features on paper, I'm the problem? 343 deciding to delay a few features rather than an entire game isn't objectively bad (like launching a broken game). You might think it's a problem, and you're entitled to your own opinion, but for some people it might seem like the best option. Either way, don't tell me I'm part of the problem because I have no patience for crappy companies like EA, Activision, and Ubisoft.

While I've been pretty hard on Infinite in terms of negativity regarding it's launch, I do agree fully in that it's still exciting to be just a few months away from the first new Halo experience in over half a decade. Though, I still do feel particularly bummed about co-op. I had planned to surprised my friends and give them all copies of the campaign on PC so we could all experience it for the first time together. The fact that those plans have had to be thrown out the window is particularly painful, especially after we had just gone through the entirety of the MCC on Legendary together a couple months ago to get ready for Infinite.

[@afterhours1989]

I don't like the delays of Forge and Coop Campaign, but I'm still very excited for the game and glad I'll be able to play it this year. Halo Infinite's campaign seems to be much more ambitious and expansive due to the change in structure with a more open game world. I also think the problems of development during a pandemic should not be underestimated. Especially creative work on complex AAA productions is likely to be significantly more time-consuming and challenging due to the more difficult communication.

[@davemccombs]

[@Priception]

Halo Infinite is another example why I hate the "games as a service" model. (at least when it's planned to be that from the get go) If you look at the most successful "games as a service" games u get games like Minecraft, GTA 5, CSGO, Fortnite and to a lesser extent Smash Ultimate. What do those have in common? They weren't planned to be live service games. Games like CSGO, GTA 5 and Smash launched feature complete and when they became live service the new stuff was just extra. But with games that plan to be live service they always launch half baked because of the whole "we'll just add it later" attitude and it really annoys me. I already feel like an old man when I look back at the 7th gen where games launched feature complete.

[@atlfoevaeva09]

They also cost $60, you needed Xbox Live/PSN on top of that to play online, and you had to buy the newest map packs for $15+ (which hurt the game more than it helped as it split the player base). Not to mention, no cross play.

[@Priception]

@@atlfoevaeva09 Halo Infinite costs $60 for the Campaign at least. For the 7th gen only 360 charged for online. PC, PS3 and Wii were free. (PC is still free) Ok... And? A lot of map packs were really great. You realise you can just disable the map packs. I'll give you crossplay.

It sucks re-watching this video 7 months after it came out and being almost 6 months post-launch. When you said "oh, they said forge won't be coming until season 3, so we'll have to wait HALF A YEAR for it," and then still being in season 1 after those six months. We still have to wait until season 3 for forge and there's no guarantee that season 2 will only be 3 months, so there's a chance we'll have to wait a full year after launch to get forge, and campaign co-op was delayed again until later into season 2 on top of that. I'm hopeful after season 2 drops, we'll get better, more frequent updates and get more stuff to do as the season progresses because as it stands, there's not much to do and not many people are playing it nearly as regularly :/

[@RicketyRocketyRoo]

[@Creed5.56]

Personally, the lack of coop at launch isn't a big deal to me. I enjoy playing HALO games for the first time by my self, alone, at night and just getting sucked into the experience as it was meant to be played. If there was no coop, at all ever, id be upset... but by the time it launches ill have played through the game one or 2 times and ill be ready to just dick around with a friend rather than take the story seriously. However, I do not feel like the camping should be $60. Let me explain. In halo Reach. At launch. In 2011. We got forge, theater, firefight, camping and multi-player. For a full $60. So, I feel like a story alone should be $30. Not $60. We are paying the same amount for 1/5 of the game but I do not expect it to be 1/5 the price.

But there are more options to access a new Halo game than ever before and while that doesn’t make the delayed features sting less, it does mean the player can decide what’s worth their investment.

[@ChrisOfTheDead]

The question to ask anyone upset by the delays: Would you rather wait an extra 3-6 months to play any Infinite at all? Or would you rather get most of Infinite sooner, and wait 3-6 months to get supplementary features? I've heard some people say the main reason this is happening is that MS won't tolerate any delays. And I have no idea if the source is reliable, but if it means they can delay a feature to avoid crunch, I'm all for it. I say that, especially, as someone who has gone through crunch.

For me, I feel like I would be completely okay with another delay if it especially means getting Forge at launch. Halo 5 without Forge for those two months felt... empty. I can't imagine that for half a year. I am still excited and optimistic, but this is a huge blow. It's also another Halo game that won't have all of it's core features preserved through physical media since Forge and co-op campaign won't be there. At least it's not like Halo 5 where besides campaign it's unplayable offline with no updates. Since we have split screen multiplayer at launch, basic custom games is at least safe. But yeah (That is if the physical disc isn't only for Campaign content which I hope it's the full package)

[@Toby_Kat]

I'm totally fine with games releasing without certain features on a couple of conditions-- First, that the dev is trustworthy and dedicated enough to add them in at _some_ point. Ideally sooner than later, but as long as it's got a good enough chance and then actually does get added in eventually... It's cool with me. And second, that the game's launch be advertised and viewed by all parties as an early access launch. I don't care if all I'm getting is a beta as long as it's frickin' advertised as such. Temper my expectations before I go in expecting polished completion. Be honest and transparent when you can, devs. I wanna prevent crunch and burnout, obviously, but I also wanna be able to play what exists in the game ASAP. The solution? Pre-"full launch" testing flights and benchmarking scenarios. If not public or a smaller pool selected from opt-in participants, then maybe to the inevitable pre-orders. Somebody needs to give you feedback on how things run, and why not send out a benchmarking demo as a pre-order bonus? Yooka-Laylee's Toy Box demo was a pretty awesome idea, as is the MCC's fighting thing. Devs can get offer early access and give people a solid taste of the full game. I'm so glad that demos are coming back :3

[@brettphillips5267]

Should be glad it still coming in after launch, as Joseph did state a live service game in not totally complete. As like for good games for example that still be play to this day, GTA V that game been out for nearly a decade but the GTA online side still get brand new content every single year in like every few months. Destiny 2, Halo MCC is kinda like a live service somewhat as we are getting like new seasons and new content every couple months, halo 5 was slightly a little bit as well of live service game as forge was not in it at launch. Theres other games That I know that tons of other games that does this type of route specially if they are holding the core mode back to polish up but release the game still and would more likely add in as there priority after launch. But can't wait to try out the next halo infinite flight on sept. 24, and can't wait for the game to release in december.

[@jammydevil8408]

I hope that they take there time in forge and do a great job however, I believe that 343 can take forge a step further by adding enemy ai ( I know they are doing this in multiplayer) such as grunts, where you can customise their difficulty, weapons and overall appearance. With this amount of freedom, players can finally make their own levels of custom fire fights in custom worlds so that the player can make their own level.

9:45 the small subset is definitely frustrated. "splitscreen will be included in all future halo games" a quote from the devs years back. clearly that left a nice loophole for them as they didnt 'specifically' state whether that included pc or not. but i personally think that 'all future halo games' definitely include halo infinite on pc. i mean, it damn near includes halo mcc. the way they wiggled their way out of that one was by saying the games were not 'technically' new halo games, just new ports/ remasters of old halo games. but from where i am sitting there is no concrete excuse now. no wiggle room. give us pc players splitscreen on pc. please. at least on infinite even if not on mcc.

Personally don't mind Forge not being there are launch since i've always seen Forge as a extra rather than a main part of halo but Coop is a completely different story; Coop has been in every mainline halo game so not including Coop makes me worried and skeptical on the quality of the campaign especially since it's a full price game as well.

[@A-239]

The premise of "live service" was meant to add ADDITIONAL content after delivering a solid foundation, to sustain player engagement and a stream of revenue for the publisher. Now "live service" has become an excuse and a safety net for mismanaged projects, to have the audacity to sell full priced games missing core/expected features or filled with bugs, resembling more early access products. It is so sad that Xbox's poster child and biggest IP (aside from Minecraft) has become victim of the live service curse. Halo 5 had to rely on patches (touted as DLC) to resemble a full Halo experience, not really adding new stuff, but instead completing the missing features at launch. I guess lessons weren't learned at 343, and here we are, repeating the same mistakes again. Now we have a "campaign only edition" missing features, sold at the equivalent of $75 USD (where I live). And a free to play multiplayer with some mixed opinions on its monetization, and the content of it remains to be known if it is feature complete (playlists, modes, social features). I hope that 343 can pull off a story similar to Halo 2's development. A mismanagement and directionless nightmare, but ending up delivering a fantastic experiemce. But with all the news and 343's track record, i really doubt it.

I feel like there are two types of games being unfinished at launch. There are games that technically have all of the features that were promised, but those features are buggy or don’t work properly. On the other hand you have games like halo infinite, which isn’t releasing with every single thing that was promised, but what is there is fully functional and polished, with the features not included at launch being on the way. Obviously neither of these are desirable, but I’d much rather have delayed features that are eventually good, rather than a bunch of features that don’t work.

[@moltedjet5291]

i like most here is bummed to see campaign co op and forger delayed id rater have this happen then get a buggy co op and forge at launch

[@SilverViper1000]

Love your content and your voice!!! Wtf, why aren't you localising games or synchronizing documentations?? Really, you should do it! Your voice is a pleasure for my ears and Im sure I'm not alone with this opinion

[@GhostLink92]

If the argument for co-op is that the overall structure of Campaign, being open world, and mission based, affects it, then I would point to Destiny. Co-op works just fine in Destiny 1 and 2. Hell, they even brought back Joseph, from Bungie, to get the game back on track.

Plzzz make a video about story leading to Halo Infinite. There is a book Halo shadow of reach which sets up Infinite. A video about that willl be much appreciated

[@d.a1882]

I don’t care about Forge and campaign Coop, I want to play halo infinite this December instead of having another delay, and I’m grateful with 343 for that

[@monke8718]

I feel the delay of forge and co-op could be good for the game, possibly infusing life into the game after the hype has died down, keeping the game feeling fun and fresh long after the initial release

[@nikobelliccringepolice9317]

Okey but Atleast there not releasing the mods broken unlike most games give them props to spending more time making sure the game isn’t broken

[@WhopyStompy]

Definitely bummed that I won't be able to pull the ritual of staying up late with my bro and cracking out on the campaign at launch. And the price tag....well, we could be PS5 users and paying $70 for it? I know that doesn't make it better. At this point, I'm just ready to play a new Halo game and see where the story goes. I'll no doubt play through it again with my brother when co-op is implemented. But at this point, I have no more patience to wait. If a delay was on the horizon, I'd had no choice but to wait. TL;DR: I'm buying it day one. Don't care and I'm tired of waiting.

[@tomverstappendrums3423]

I just hope the singleplayer is amazing that's it. Coop later is fine in that case

[@Iamwolf134]

Disappointed as I am about a lack of forge and co-op, I'd rather have a good feature delayed, than an unrefined feature rushed.

[@Splooth_Sleeping_Battery]

I'll play multiplayer, but will mute any mention of halo (spoilers) within my socials and just wait for coop.

[@YUURRRRRofficial]

Pay 100% of your money. Shud get 100% of the game.

[@netweed09]

I know we're in this day n age where we have to be well aware of gaming tragedies like Anthem and Cyberpunk (well, this was just buggy hell that crippled it) - but I haven't played Halo since the 2nd game. I look at the sweeping screens with the ring system tailing off into the 'sky' and just get so damn excited lol. A few trailer voiceovers were a bit cringe. But if the Open-world exploring and features hold up well, I'm more than up for it

[@emile-a239haloreach2]

My friend is already upset because she nearly took time off from work on November 15th to get the game now she has to wait for December 8th

[@Andrew24427]

Awesome dude I can’t wait to see what videos you post next I love your content

[@tinobrown1780]

A full single player campaign, and a full competitive multiplayer at launch is complete enough. Those other features can wait, as they are not essential to the majority of players.

[@patrikk123456]

Ill be alright with out coop and forge, as long as i can play the campaign and multiplayer I'll be happy. Just imagine if they didn't delay it another year, what would of we really gotten?

[@זהסודי-ה7מ]

Probably a ubisoft campaign with original Xbox graphics, but with co-op

[@litiangparra6799]

I have no problems with them being delayed, I mean yeah it sucks, cause i love when I play with my friends and family on halo, but hey ive waited too long for this game to come out, I think its about time for this game to come out.

[@kellypitts8481]

That sucks about co op. Never got into forge though

[@iplz]

Didn't they commission out forge in halo 5

[@otherZinc]

I'm not disappointed at all. At lesst we're getting the game this year, unlike Sony Releasing Nothing this winter.

[@derpwords2429]

Well this sucks. I've played every halo campaign in co-op with the same friend since halo 2... imma have to wait 5 months to play the campaign.

[@booiebob]

The forge is gonna be the best forge ever we know that so it's fine that it's gonna be delayed. Also halo infinite is semi open-world so the co-op might be different and it might affect the story being in co-op like having to add a secondary character into the cutscenes with the arbiter in halo 3.

[@peacelove6455]

Forge better be good after a 6 month delay XD

[@sidrolf]

Just buy the game when it has the features you want!

[@Vegas2332]

I'm low-key hoping they let flight players beta test co-op during season 1 😅

[@lenfarag1999]

A lot of people dont realised that making games is hard. There is no pressing a button to add a feature to your game. Just because games had a feature before, doesn't mean it's just as simple to implement, it's not. Halo Infinite is a different game to Halo 2/Halo 3, it has a different engine, works completely different under the hood to accommodate all of the new features. It's not as simple as copy/pasting stuff over. It takes time and a lot of planning. Throwing money at the problem doesn't speed it up, only time can make the difference.

Yo this music in the video slaps!

[@timelordmagnums357]

Actually the issue is that they are trying to please way too many people. They should have kept this on certain consoles and pc only. Let's face it, it's time to kick out the old 486 and xbox's and start buying new equipment to run their engine. Technology progresses and at some point you have to progress with it or you are left behind. Enough cutting corners so everyone is pleased. Another option is they sell the campaign for 40 and add ten more for forge and ten more for coop. That way you get what you are paying for. You can't please everyone all the time and not hurt quality.

[@Dr.Oofers]

To be honest, due to scalpers they *have* to make the game for last gen. Can’t really fault them.
